Just curious because it's close to me. We don't see too many old race boats laying around in SoCal. Not like SoFla!
What boat was it? Power? Drives? Why stripped?
Thanks!

Lloyd-
Haven't seen the actual boat, but looked at the mold for it when I inspected the 40'. The 50' seemed huge! I know that Michael Peters designed the hull and it was designed for 4 engines, but turbines would probably be best & make good use of the Arnesons (Coco Cola boat has them). The cockpit is the same size as the 40'; the windshield and roll cage were also the same. Jack told me the boat was built strong (heavy): same as most of his boats. He might still own the mold.
If you have time, lets share lunch.

John,
Sure I have time, when do you want to go to lunch ?
The thought of the 50' would be a fairly involved project. However, there is more to be done before making a serious decision.
I did speak with Jack, He not only has the molds,but another hull and deck. Jack recalls the Coca Cola boat weighing between 16 and 18,000#,with fuel. Pretty heavy,but might fit into the scheme. Do I have you curious enough to want to go to the Miami Boat Show...We could have lunch there!!
